If you want a .380, that Beretta is being sold at a "bargain" price. If all else fails you can have the barrel replaced (the Accokeek, MD factory should be able to supply a fresh one.) A good 'smith should be able to install it. New springs, an extractor, and some refinishing should bring it up...

I have three .380 ACP DA/SA pistols (two Bersa Thunders and a CZ 82.) The Beretta is nice, and of good quality, but I don't need another.

I was going back to Internal Medicine, when I discovered the Proctologist was once a Photographer! (Say cheese!)

And wisely so. The FMJ, loaded to the proper OAL, avoids the dreaded "rim lock" that can get you killed in a life-threatening situation.

ABSOLUTELY! IMHO, ignore the "you need a hollow point load to be effective" nonsense. I have five .32 ACP handguns. Your very best bet is to buy a "European" level FMJ load. Look up how well the Fiocchi 73-grain "blue box" FMJ load penetrates from a 2.5" barrel (on Lucky Gunner's tests form...

"The Men's Department" is down the passageway and to your port side... Keep looking. 😛

She should have been sentenced to 36 months. (It would have done her a world of good.)

Sometimes it happens. We love each other as brothers and sisters in uniform.

Still works in my Ruger SR-15 (5.56).

Turn your ID card over and it reads "Department of the Navy". So there! 😛

Until you call in for an air strike from the carrier deck!

Fair winds and following seas to us all. MAY GOD BLESS THE USN/USMC! As long as the Republic stands, we are blood forever!

My degree is in Speech Communication with a minor in Sociology and two years of Post Baccalaureate study in History and the Administration of Justice.

I laugh and cry at what we all had/have to deal with. May God bless us all. To this day, I hurt from some things that happened during my enlistment. And I enlisted on July 19th, 1973.

The VA treats me fairly well. Last week, the bridge of my glasses frame broke. I had to drive to the VA Hospital atop "pill hill" in South Portland, OR. After signing in and chatting with a few older Vets, the optician called me in and replaced the frames within 7 minutes, tops. I love to joke...

The poor doctor quoted Buzz Lightyear when he used the spatula, "TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!" And the pain was... TREMENDOUS! :eek:

The Doctor at the VA studied at the Cordon Bleu before attending medical school. The poor man confused a spatula with a speculum, and his female patients haven't been the same since!

Ballistics By the Inch tends to differ with you. (These are from real guns, not test barrels.)

A 10.5" barrel or 11.5" barrel would still be a step up over the 4.25"- 4.7" barrels of most service-size pistols. An added FRT could come close to equating SMG performance. A binary trigger wouldn't raise too many eyebrows. Bear in mind this PPC has no forward assist (as if the original...
